FROM THE EAST.

SIGOuRNEY BUTLER. second comp
troller of the treasury, has made two de-
cisions Of much importance in army cir
cles, one of which can hardly fail to re-
suit in saving the government consider
able money. He has decided that six
months is q sufficient time within which to
close paymasters' accounts, and that here
after Il final revision Of all sail accounts
should be made within that time. He has
also decided that an officer may be paid
for mileage for travel performed without
previous order, but subsequently ratified
by the officers superior on the ground that
the duty was compelled by emergency and
urgent public necessity.
FANNIE ROBERTS, the woman to whom
Defaulting Teller Scott, of the Manhattan
Bank, says he gave so 200 of the stolen
money in trust, and who appropriated il to
her own use, has been found at 1G5 West
Twenty eighth street, New York City. She
was placed under surveillance. The coun-
sci for the bank say they will institute q
civil suit against her to recover the money
and then prosecute her criminally.
MRS. FOLK, aged eighty five years, a
well-known resident of Findlay, Ohio,
arose from her bed feeling as well as usual.
After breakfast 1t was hut few moments
until she became suddenly blind and deaf.
Ihe loss OF these senses is evidently per-
manent, and is supposed to be the result OF
old age, as there was no other apparent
cause for the double afflict;on.
GENERAL MASTER WORKMAN Pow
DERBY has made public letter in which
he says: ''When the American national

AT THE SOUTH.

THE body of John Brickley, foreman Of
the Chicago, Kansas and Nebraska Rail-
way company stone gang at Watheua,
Kan, west from st. Joe, No., five miles,
was found on the railway track near
Wathena. The train had run over the top
of his head, cutting ii off. While some be-
lieved the death was accidental it is more
generally thought that the man was mur-
dered and placed ON the track. Brickley
spent the day in st. Joseph and started
for Wathena at night with some compan-
ions on a hand car. He has a brother
somewhere in southwest Iowa. Brickleys
pick-axe was covered with blood.
AN alteration occurred in Decatur, Ca,
brought on by an unruly colored man at a
church gathering. Officers were called in
and riot followed, when o general firing
ensued, in which Town Marshal Hunt was
killed and an unknown negro was shot
dead. Tom Shivers, white, is moltally
wounded.
18 years old, attempted to feloniously as
snult Miss Sapp, beautiful young lady
who lives near Greensboro, S. c.. while
she was returning from neighbors house.
He was taken to Greensboro and placed in
Jail. A mob broke in the jail, took the
mulatto out and hanged him.
MARY THOMPSON, young woman of
II years of age, whose parents reside at
Springfield, ILL.,, became crazed with re-
ligious excitement while attending a meet
ing Of the Salvation Army at Sedalia, NO.,
and it became necessary to send her home.
1t appears that the girl io ned the army at
some point in Illinoi and had been q reg
ular attendant at the meetings for several
months past. About a week ago she first
exhibited signs of insanity, and spent the
greater part of her time in prayer, neglect
ing her duties, and annoying the inmates
of the house by her wild cries and prayers
a: all hours of the night. On the subject
of religion alone the mind of the girl is
diseased.
Two men, named Harrison and Graham,
became involved in quarrel in the Chick
asaw nation, which resulted in the fatal
shooting of each and son of Harrison.
The trouble arose over the latter's refusal
to consent to Graham's marriage with his
daughter.
THE state of Tennessee will vote next
month on the question of prohibition. The
majority against it will probably be about
as large as it was in Texas; Tor Tennessee
is oil moonshiners who believe that prohi-
bition is all moonshine.

RAILWAY ITEMS.

CHANGE of time has occurred on the
Milwaukee road. The Chicago train leaves
Sioux City at GAO p. M, instead Of sos
p. M, and arrives a' $40 instead Of $50.
The Mitchell train leaves at $3.50 q. M, in
to Chicago 35 minutes. The time of the
Yankton train has not been changed.
Meals will be served on the sleeper to pas
sengers reaching Sioux City in the morn
ing from the east
The case OF A. j. Latimer against the
Illinois Central Railway company for $10,-
900 damages, is being tried in the circuit
court of Clinton, Ill. The suit grew out OF
Conductor Finch putting the formers g.
year old daughter OF n passenger train be-
cause the child did not have Z cents with
which to pay her fare from Wapella to
Clinton.
The Chicago end Alton railroad, ono OF
the roads boycotted by the trunk lines on

be waxed. The Rock Island and other
boyco;ted roads are expected to follow this
example.

POLITICAL WORLD.

II en- be stated on gool authority that
Minister Lothrop's resignation of the Rus.
sian portfolio will soon be filed, and that
he il hlled to be sent to England as min
lister n succeed Mr.. Phelps. 1t is we'll
known that the rigorous climate Of st.
Petersburg has been severely felt by Mr..
Lothrop. and that the position of United
States representative at the czat's court was
not q desirable as expected by the incum-
bent Tho salary of the Office is not COM
mens4rAte with its dignity; and Mr..
LotiIfop's private fortune will not enable
him to keep an establishment equal to the
ministers from other countries, who get
larger salanes. And Mr.. Lo:hrop does not
speak French, which is the court language,
and he does not understand Russian.
The report from Chicago that Civil Ser
vice Commissioner Oberly is to resign, to
accept the craftsmanship of the democratic
national committee, is discredited by his
friends IN Washington. They say that MIR.
Oberly is poor man and could not afford
to enter politics again. There is q general
belief in Washington that in the event of
Commissioner Millers resignation, which
is quite likely on account of his ill-health,
Mr.. Oberly would be made commissioner
of internal revenue.
ALBERT GRIFFIN, chairman of the Ma
tional antisalon republican committee, lee
tured in Beloitrecently. Among other state
ments he claimed that the next republican
national convention would, without doubt,
adopt an ant-saloon platform. When
asked whether that would mean prohibi-
ton platform, he replied in the negative.
When further asked whether Blaine would
run on such a platform, he replied "Un-
doubtedly. He, Elkins and Whitelaw Reid
are with us.
IT is announced that newspaper, to be
called the Daily World, is to be started at
Atlanta, Ga, within two weeks. 1t is said
it is to be strongly anti Cleveland, and the
funds upon which it is to subsist have been
furnished by the political friends of Gov.
Hill, of New York.
SIMON B. CHASE, of Easton, Pa, was
unanimously nominated by the prohibition
convention for supreme judge. Capt. D.

Peoria special to Chicago Tin,es.l
Mr.. T.. T. Leonard, President Of the To.
ledo, Peoria and Western Hallway, was
asked what the company would do in the
way Of settling for damages sustained At
Chatsworth. In reply he said it wns inn
possible to say as yet what the company
would do. Speaking for himself, IL the
company we're liable lis own disposition
was to make such settlements outside Of the
courts o. enlightened public sentiment
would consider reasonable and just. I'm
like many companies, the ownership
Of the Toledo, Peoria and Western
Railway is distributed extensively among
o large number of holders; consequently
It takes time 10 consult the stockholders and
ascertain their wishes. Correspondence ID
now being actively conducted with them,
and the probabilities are that they will be
called together in New York as early 40
possible, when they will consider all the
circumstances Of the case and determine
what shall be done, and the scope Of their
deliberations would probably decide
whether the company was or was not liable,
and II 90, to what extent With those Ques-
tions answered they would have to decide
how to settle claims, and how to raise the
money to Dettle them with. The money
would have 10 be borrowed. The officers
are busily engaged getting all the facts Of
the disaster and obtaining full lists Of the
injured, together with the exact character
of their injuries, and all this information
and the evidence elected by the railroad
commissioners and coroner will be laid be.

A FIERCE FIGHT.

A special dispatch from Cincinnati to

the color limo in recent issue,
fully explains the dilemma in an amusing
sketch. There, black belle jostles her
white neighbor as though 10 the manner
and station born-equal. James A. Brad.
ley, the founder and owner Of Asbury Park,
Of course has legal and moral right,
az long as private ownership OF land ID
recognized, to decide who shall and who
shall not occupy his private property. Mr..
Bradleys offending lies in the charge that
he has said that large numbers OF colored
persons come to the beach every evening;
that they moEopolize the choice seats in
the pavilion and crowd guests OF the board
walks; that some Of them behave improp-
erly, and that many try to make the walks
and beach lodging places. Mr.. Bradleyis
words are. "The tiEae Is coming, indeed,
may have arrived, when some decided &C.
ton must be taken to show our colored
friends that the board walk and the pavil.
ion are private property, to which the owner
invites the guests Of the ,hotel, and others,
whom he does not invite, will be requested
in language no. to be misunderstood not
to interfere with the arrangements he has
made for the permanency Of the town and
the protection of the capital he has in
vested" Mr.. Bradley manages the prop
erty that he has built, and maintains every
thing at his own expense. He is an acute,
shrewd and active business man, and, q
the owner Of Asbury Park, he has cer-
tainly right to exclude whom and what hs
